Justin Rose has produced the first hole-in-one in modern Olympic history

The Englishman has made history in Rio.

WITH GOLF BACK in the Olympic Games for the first time in 112 years, the opening round got underway in Rio this morning.

While Australiaโ€™s Marcus Fraser leads the way on seven under par, with Irelandโ€™s Padraig Harrington six shots back after carding 70, Great Britainโ€™s Justin Rose made history with a superb hole-in-one on the fourth.

Heโ€™s currently three under through six holes.

Just Rose hole in one

    If only Liverpool had thrown away a couple of 2 goal leads earlier in the season the league would be asgood as in the bag now,still one canโ€™t really complain with how things are turning out on the cup runs.
    Glorious
